I love buying gifts for little ones who revel in the magic of Christmas. Henry’s at an age now where he gets very excited about presents and requests particular toys, so it was easy to select gifts that I know will delight him, but little Everly – our baby of the family – will only be four weeks old, so I was a little lost as to what to buy…

Etsy is my go-to place for finding unique and beautiful handcrafted items. And once we knew we were having a little girl, I was there searching for special items to fill her nursery with.

Baby Girl Nursery Wishlist
I love browsing Pinterest and Instagram for nursery decor inspiration, even when I’m not pregnant, so once we found out I’m carrying a baby girl, I was even more excited to look through the hundreds of beautiful interiors and plan how I’d like our nursery to look. My vision is something whimsical and fresh – white and pink with touches of gold in the accessories. There are so many pretty…
Etsy Finds – Mother’s Day Gift Guide
I have fond memories of Mother’s Day from my childhood, when my three older brothers and I would take my mum breakfast in bed, along with flowers picked from the garden and a homemade card. This year will mark my third Mother’s Day as a mummy, and although I’m a long way off receiving anything from Henry himself, it’s lovely to be treated on his behalf! So, with Mother’s Day…
Etsy Finds – Home Office
With our move to the USA quickly approaching, I’ve been spending more time thinking about setting up home there. One of the things I’m most excited about is finally having a home office.

Henry’s 1st Birthday
A belated post, as Friday 10th October marked the day that we celebrated our darling little Henry’s very first birthday. A child turning one is momentous in so many ways. Not only has a baby blossomed into a toddler, it signifies a year of firsts, a year of learning for both parent and child, of tears and triumphs, bonding and discovery. The occasion was especially poignant for Matt and I. Our beautiful rainbow…

Autumn is one of my favourite seasons. With the nights becoming longer and the crisp chill in the air, it’s the perfect time for wrapping up in cosy knitwear, enjoying snuggles in front of the fire and indulging in sweet hot chocolate. But before I embrace all the comforts of Autumn, I thought I’d share some of my favourite picks from Etsy.

Etsy Finds – Mean Girls
Can you believe the iconic Mean Girls is already 10 years old?! I love how it’s become a cult classic, adored my many and re-watched over and over again. Along with Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion, it’s my favourite film for great one-liners. In celebration of enjoying a decade of the film that brought high school drama, bitchiness and Regina George into our worlds, here are my favourite Etsy…
Etsy Finds – Pretty Pastels
I love the freshness of pastels – the candy floss colour of baby blue, pale pink, lemon and peppermint always appeals to me and I find there’s something quite innocent and whimsical about the soft palette of chalky hues. As always, Etsy has plenty to offer in array of pretty pastel tones, so I picked a few of my favourites. The silk kimono robes are a firm favourite of mine, and I may just…
